Default Taco wing adjustable?

I've seen both adjustable and fixed taco wings (Mk I Aero). Were both parts factory or is the fixed wing a replica?

Define what you mean by fixed vs adjustable. The factory taco wing is adjustable in 3 settings but only after you remove 2 hidden screws from the underside and make the adjustment then lock it back in place with the screws.

One thing I regret is not ever changing the angle of mine while I had it.

I mean fixed, as in there is no ability to adjust the central portion of the wing. No seams to even indicate the central section is seperate from the uprights.

Thanks,

The factory spoiler adjusts to 3 positions (this is the middle position).
If you your spoiler does not look like this - then it is not a factory spoiler.

If it's fixed it's a cheap copy........ They call this splashing in the boat industry.
